Investigation underway after body found in NE Oklahoma City

OKLAHOMA CITY (KFOR) - A murder investigation is underway after a victim’s body was found in a car in northeast Oklahoma City after being run over by a car on Monday. 

The car was parked in a neighborhood just a few blocks away from OU Health’s complex. 

"It's really kind of a shocker,” said Bertice Abercrombie, who lives in the area. “I just saw a whole bunch of police cars… It was different because this is a quiet neighborhood." 

According to the Oklahoma City Police Department, the victim and Jessica Yeahquo got into a fight earlier in the day on the I-35 Service Road near SE 29th Street. 

"It appears that during that disturbance, the victim was run over by the suspect in a vehicle. It appears they were living in and out of this vehicle,” said Sgt. Dillon Quirk with OKCPD. 

Police said the victim wasn’t taken to a hospital and later died inside the car. 

Yeahquo was questioned then booked into the Oklahoma County Jail on a murder complaint. 

OKCPD said the investigation is still in its early stages. The victim’s name will be released once their family is notified.
